Insert modules one at a time

TL;DR
Insert modules one at a time into Assembler/Chem/Refinery

What?
I would like to see the ability to insert one module at a time while right-clicking a stack of modules onto a building.

Why?
As it currently sits, if you are holding a stack of modules and you shift-click on a building, it places as much of the stack into the building as it can. If you shift-right click, it places half of the stack, which still usually fills the building. If you are manually installing modules into lots of buildings, this can be a pain, as maybe you want, for example, 1xSpeed Module 3 and 3x Productivity Module 3 in a building.

Configure the first building manually -> Use copy/paste blueprints and robots to fill the rest. (Yes, this works after the buildigns are already built.

You can already do it with the "drop item" shortcut.
